Niels Bohr was born and educated in Copenhagen, Denmark. He lived, worked, and died there, too. But his mark on science and history was worldwide. His professional work and personal convictions ...

Photo: Niels Bohr's research notes for his new atomic theory Rutherford's find came from a very strange experience. Everyone at that time imagined the atom as a "plum pudding." That is ...

The experimental setup in the laboratory. The atoms are captured in the magneto-optical trap in a vacuum chamber in the middle of the image using ultraviolet laser light (blue rays). The magnetic ...

The discovery was made by astrophysicists from the Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, and is published in ...

In 1913, Niels Bohr revised Rutherford's model by suggesting that the electrons orbited the nucleus in different energy levels or at specific distances from the nucleus. By doing this, he was able ...

In 1927, Werner Heisenberg was in Denmark working at Niels Bohr's research institute in Copenhagen. The two scientists worked closely on theoretical investigations into quantum theory and the ...

Researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute and the University of Copenhagen have developed a new method for testing sea level rise models against the historical record. Hurricanes making landfall in ...
